Ploshchad-K (1bb5f1f1-695f-537e-aae5-c74363700894)
Ploshchad‑K is an electric, first‑person‑view (FPV) vertical‑take‑off‑and‑landing (VTOL) drone developed by the Russian manufacturer Ploshchad. Identified by UUID 1bb5f1f1‑695f‑537e‑aae5‑c74363700894, the platform is operated within Russia and is listed under Russian operators. Its FPV capability indicates a real‑time, pilot‑controlled flight experience, while the VTOL design provides the ability to launch and recover without conventional runway infrastructure. These characteristics suggest a role focused on short‑range, maneuverable missions such as rapid‑deployment reconnaissance, target acquisition, or limited tactical support in environments where traditional aircraft cannot operate. The platform’s electric powerplant further points to low acoustic and thermal signatures during operation.
